Weebs Central DxD: Rerun

Sword Induced PTSD

Rias sighed as she looked through the paperwork in front of her. It was mostly stuff that she had to fill out as head of the ORC, but she still hated every second of it.

However, it was a good chance to reflect on what had happened recently. She had been engaged to Riser Phenex until the weebs showed up. Rage had single handedly taken Riser's right to Rias' hand for himself and Red had even taken down Lord Phenex, whos regenerative abilities were said to be even greater than Riser's, before taking in Rachel Phenex.

It'd been a few days since then. Even fewer days since she and Sona were filled in about who and what Rage truly was.

She was swiftly brought out of her thoughts by Pine entering the clubroom with a few books.

Pine: "Just returning the demonology books you lent me."

Rias: "Oh, thank you, Pine. Akeno's making some tea if you'd like to stay for some."

Pine: "Hm? Sure."

Pine took a seat on one of the couches and unclipped one of the bells from her bag.

Rias: "I've been meaning to ask. What are the bells for?"

Pine: "A few things. They're good for annoying Red, but they also have their own individual functions. The ones with the green ringer are actually healing enchantments."

Rias: "Healing? Ah, I see. So when you ring them, it heals any nearby allies?"

Pine nodded as Akeno walked out of the other room with a tray of tea.

Akeno: "Oh, Pine. I wasn't aware you'd be joining us."

Pine: "I just came to return the books I borrowed, but Rias offered tea, so I thought I'd stick around."

Akeno: "Fair enough."

Pine, Rias and Akeno all sat around having a pleasant conversation until Pine brought up a topic that had been bugging her for a while.

Pine: "So, who are the main pillars in the underworld?"

Akeno: "Rias?"

Rias: "Well, Gremory, Sitri, Astaroth and Glaysa-Labolas are the four houses that have a member in the position of devil king. Sirzechs is in the position of Lucifer. Sona's older sister, Serafall is in Leviathan's position. Ajuka Astaroth is in Beelzebub's seat and Falbium Glasya-Labolas is in the place of Asmodeus."

Pine: "What about Samael?"

Akeno: "The dragon eater is currently sealed away in lake Cocytus. Nobody's ever been able to free him but his hatred for dragons is something that can be felt even just by looking at him."

Pine listened intently and took mental notes as the three talked about different aspects of devil history and mythology. She also talked with them about what she knew of magics from other worlds. All in all it served as an entertaining way to pass the time.

After their chat however, Pine headed to the school library so she could study for an ungodly amount of time (again) and generally just relax. Being around the others brought on a series of different vibes. Cheese and Smol were people that made her laugh quite a bit, while Reaper was such a tsundere that she and the others couldn't help but tease him for it. Rage was a headache to deal with due to his love of anything and everything violent as well as his slight superiority complex.

Thankfully it was nowhere near as bad as some people the weebs had dealt with.

When she arrived at the library, she found that a few of her classmates were already there. They called her over when they spotted her and Pine's solo study turned into a group study session. They mostly went over science-based subjects like chemistry, biology and physics. As she tutored her classmates on the basics, she spotted a certain book out of the corner of her eye. One that she reminded herself to pick up when she got the chance.
